Dom 37

 

Alex had gone all day with this feeling, a wanting or need to go down to the west wing but he kept on working, ignoring it. It was almost like the nagging feeling he got when his sister was there and he knew she was bored out of her mind or was itching to pull a scheme on their mother like when they were little. And she always took the rap for the plots even if 98% were his, she would just put the fine tuning into them. Hell he was convinced near the end that a lot of them she did just so that Lance would have to reprimand her.

 

It was near 3pm when the strong craving for a small stack of peanut butter and green mint jelly on big honey butter biscuits hit him. The craving had gotten worse. When they first started he had ignored them but as the weeks went on he finally told Lady Lisa about them. It seemed that she and his sister thought that with the twin bond that this might have happened so she told him that he could go to the kitchen and ask for whatever it was that he was craving. And that's exactly what he did. He headed down to the kitchen where Latefa, the head cook, was working on the dinner for tonight.

 

"Alex I was wondering if you were going to be coming." She smiled brightly.  "What is it you'll be wanting today?"

 

"Some giant Honey butter biscuits with PB and some of that great green mint jelly. Oh and some dark chocolate sauce too please."

 

Latefa walked over to the cupboard that was out of view and started moving a few jars around. She already had a tray warming for him. She was the only person who he knew was here. Having been there when they arrived and either Aaron or Lady De would sneak down for food. She had gotten them the bottles from when her children were babies and every morning would fill them up with milk for the baby. It was so cute having Aaron sits there and run though names for his little girl. She had put her foot down when he thought up the one Shaneneh. That was just so wrong in too many ways. Taking the tray out she walked back and put it down in front of him. "There you are Alex. Now you take that and run before those boys come and start spreading rumors that you’re using this as a reason to be lazy."

 

Alex picked up the hot, wood handled tray and headed up the back stairwell, that lead to the west wing. It was quiet there and well if he happened to see who the woman was that was here the better to tell Lady Lisa. He picked the small sitting room off of the bedroom

that was his sisters. He was half way through his second biscuit that was dripping with chocolate sauce when he heard the voices. He could hear them clearly but couldn't tell whose they were from the thick wooden doors.

 

"I've got it; I know the exact name for her."

 

"Have you? Well, what is it you'll be naming you're daughter?"

 

"Our Daughter," He corrected then went on. "Aerabella Kayla-Marie. Yes, Aerabella. Arry for short. Do you like it?"

 

"Yes, I do. I think it suits her well." The door opened as Alex was in mid bite. "Alexander?" His sister waddle-walked over to him and hugged him as best as she could with her beach ball belly. "Go get Lisa for me please. Oh!!  You got some honey biscuits! Can I have one? Thanks ... love yah." De said giving him a mushy sister kisses on the cheek before sending him off to get his mistress.

 

"Now Denise you really should get back into bed. I'll give you back rub."  Aaron said to temp her back into bed.

 

"Do you think we can get someone to just cut me open and pull the baby out?"  De said looking up at Aaron hopefully.

 

"But I thought you wanted to yank my arm out of its socket. You can't do that if you don’t go into labor."

 

"Yeah well you try being pregnant and see how you like."

 

"Sweet ling, I would if I could." Aaron said as he helped her back into bed.
